"Oh, ah, yes, well, if it's a sin, of course," said Miss Prissy; "but then dear me! it don't seem as if it could be.
Scudder appeared at the door of the apartment, with traces of tears upon her cheeks. "Good morning, James," she said. "The Doctor wishes to see you and Mary a moment, together." Both looked sufficiently astonished, knowing, from Mrs. Scudder's looks, that something was impending. They followed her, scarcely feeling the ground they trod on.

"Is that all you eat for dinner?" asked Mr. Olmsted. "I have not eaten a warm dinner, except on Sundays, since I bought the Museum," was the reply, "and I don't intend to, until I am out of debt." "That's right," said Mr. Olmsted, heartily, "and you'll pay for the Museum before the year is out." And he was right. The nucleus of this establishment, Scudder's Museum, was formed in 1810.
